Husband Of 14 Years Walks Away From Wife After Hearing She’ll Never Walk Again, What Wife Did After Will Make You Tear Up

In an incredible story of recovery and resilience, Riona Kelly, a 37-year-old from Halifax, Yorkshire, faced a devastating spinal stroke in March 2015. Rushed to the hospital, she was paralyzed from the waist down, and her husband decided to end their marriage just five days into her hospital stay.

“I was miserable in my marriage, but we had built a life together and had responsibilities,” Riona said, expressing her husband’s abandonment during her time of need.

Doctors initially gave a grim prognosis, suggesting she might never walk again. Riona grappled with despair and hopelessness but found the strength to fight. With relentless determination and hours of physiotherapy, she took her first steps on a parallel bar, defying the odds.

Her journey continued, and after four months in the hospital, she returned home, facing the challenge of 16 steps. Fueled by love for her children, she persevered.

During rehab, she met Keith Mason, a personal trainer. Their relationship evolved from coach to love, and they now share a life and blended families.

Riona completed two marathons with her wheelchair and achieved the ability to walk unassisted. She credits her transformation to love, determination, and an indomitable spirit.

Riona’s ex-husband clarified that he had asked for a divorce the morning before her stroke and continued to support her and their children during that challenging time. They have since moved on separately.
